[Instant News/Comprehensive Report]Ukraine used the Turkish-made “standard bearer” TB2 UAV (Baykar Bayraktar TB2) in the Ukrainian-Russian War to destroy Russian vehicles and positions. Russia was able to concentrate its air defense forces and adjust its air defense strategy. Several Ukrainian TB2 drones were shot down, and the Ukrainian military also adjusted its use of drones.
According to comprehensive foreign media reports, the TB2 UAV has achieved miraculous results in dealing with armored and logistical convoys in the early days of the Ukrainian-Russian war. However, the Russian army has recently focused its offensive on the Donbas region, and the air defense system has also been used intensively. The Russian army shot down a TB2 drone in mid-March and recovered the wreckage for research. Russia may have discovered the vulnerability of the TB2 drone, and the Russian army may also disrupt the control signal of the drone through electromagnetic interference.

In addition, the Russian military adjusted its air defense strategy and deployed S-300 surface-to-air missiles, “Buk M3” (Buk M3) air defense missiles, and “Tor M2” (TorM2) air defense missiles in layers to build a complete air defense system. It also greatly increased the probability of TB2 drones being shot down, and the number of Ukrainian TB2 drones dispatched also decreased.
Due to the limited number of TB2 drones in Ukraine, the Forbes report pointed out that the Ukrainian army is unlikely to deliberately fly the drones to areas with high crash risk, but the risk of the drone being shot down is not a problem for the Ukrainian army. It’s a big blow. At present, the Ukrainian and Russian troops are facing each other on the front line. The distance is not far, and long-range artillery fire can also achieve a similar effect as a drone attack. And Ukraine’s recent military operations against Snake Island, TB2 drones played an important role.
Forbes believes that the TB2 drone will continue to play a role in the war as the war reaches its fourth month, but it may not achieve the major results in the early days of the war, especially in the fierce Udon Donbass area.
